Summer of Jest

Since most of us in publishing have been meaning to read David Foster Wallace’s gloriously funny, thousand+-page masterpiece for years, Infinite Jest New York is a book club dedicated to reading it in the Summer of 2013. It follows a very doable, moderately-paced schedule outlined by Summer of Jest (www.summerofjest.org/how-to-participate/reading-schedule) – which offers a wonderful online community for Infinite Jest readers. The book club will meet up at rotating locations every other week throughout the summer for spirited discussions in good company. The first meeting (dedicated to the first 169 pages will be held on Tuesday, June 18 at Madison Square Park (near the 26th Street and 5th Avenue entrance). All are welcome!
